UFC FN 33: Anthony Perosh to Fight Ryan Bader

The December 7th, UFC Fight Night in Brisbane, Australia will feature another fighter from that nation, as Sydney’s Anthony Perosh has been booked to fight light-heavyweight Ryan Bader.

Perosh (14-7) will be looking to build on the quick, 14 second knockout he recorded over Vinny Magalhaes at UFC 163 in August, which followed his 7 second, stoppage loss to Ryan Jimmo last July. The 41 year-old fighter and decorated BJJ practitioner is 4-1 in his last 5 tilts.

Bader (15-4) was stopped by Glover Teixeira in his last outing, at UFC FN 28 on Septembe 4th, after quickly submitting Vladimir Matyushenko at UFC on FOX 6 in January. The 30 year-old, former TUF winner is 3-2 in his last 5 bouts.

UFC FN 33 will be headlined by a heavyweight bout between “Bigfoot” Silva and Mark Hunt, and will see James Te Huna fight “Shogun’ Rua in the co-main-event. Soa Palelei is also set to meet heavyweight Pat Barry that night.
